Following rumbles of Nute Gunray becoming a fleet commander. My Nute Gunray is currently at 5* gear 5. Is it worth farming him for ships? I am guessing they will be having a rework cos are pretty pants atm.

    If you have an awful lot of spare resources yes, do it. But no one confirmed him being a fleet commander, and you would just be guessing.

    I recommend not to spend on him until we have official word about it. It could be a huge waste of resources

    Cute title I appreciate it lol. Nute is rumored to be a fleet commander fairly soon and I saw a complete ability list somewhere, he's strong if it says the same. If you have no other greater priority in arena shop go ahead and grab him now and then

    We don't know yet when nute gunray fleet will be available and we still don't know if it will be a good commander. So it's purely a random choice, it may be good, it mat be bad. It's base on if you choose to upgrade nute gunray, which toon you will not upgrade because of this. If you still have good toon that you should upgrade in pvp shipment, then it may be better to upgrade a sure good toon than a possible good toon in a unknown future...

    I 7* him, but I won't level or gear him until there is any use for him. That's my way of hedging the bet.

    Nute definitely needs a gunray. One of the most lacking characters in the game

    First off. Fantastic thread title :)

    Second, I agree with MasterRising. 7* him but hold off on gear until he has been released if at all, and we can see if he is any good or not.

    I expect that it will be Nute or GG for the next fleet commander, as we have already have ANH / ROTJ commander from both DS and LS in Admiral Akbar and GMT, but we still don't have a Clone wars / Separatist commander to go with Mace.

    Thank you. I did put some thought into it. Exactly my friend, it was announced by them about being a possible fleet commander. I am farming a couple in squad arena still and working on 4 different teams so gear is scarce. My akbar ship is pretty solid.

    Title should be "To Gunray or Nute to Gunray." Works better that way IMO.

    Thank you kindly, you got the Shakespeare reference :-p i think uz are both right. Most will do for now is 7* him. If his ship turns out to have an amazing then i will put some gear into him. My separatists ships are nearly 6* so tht will good.

    Good insight Gamezealot, and knowledge :-) i heard rumbles of GG and the soulless one. I guess we will just have to wait and see n get him to 7* most for now. Could be a while yet before he is released too or get a definitr date so some time to get gear on him. Thanks everyone.

    Its Shakespeare- to not or not to be. Replaced the nots with Nute everyone else got it. Thank you for ur input to this thread it has really helped

    Nute being a fleet commander was scrapped late in the development of ships. The reason being most seperatist ships are in fact droids and wouldn't have pilots, removing the incentive to spend money and gear up pilots, thus the lack of dark side ships. I highly doubt we will ever see nute as a commander.

    Isn't the actual quote from Hamlet, "To be, or not to be, that is the question" So only one "not" to be replaced. Everyone else got it because it was close enough.

    Oh really? Inside info. That does make sense from what ur saying. If 100% correct that wud save levelling n gearing a useless character. Thanks mate

    You couldn't be anymore wrong. "To not or not to be."

    Shakespeare deserves better than that.

    Easiest answer: What else are you going to do with your Arena tokens?

    If you're in the middle of farming someone then keep doing that. But if you're like I was a few weeks ago and just saving up to buy a million credits every couple days because there was no one else you were interested in, then why not?

    Sado. Everyone else liked. Maybe stopping being a bich and help with discussions tht people find helpful or want actual discussions not just to be a tw@. U work with the material u got dcknose. To be or not to be was the quote i used but replaced with nute, i didnt mull over for ages with it. Get a **** life

    I 7* Nute but, have not leveled or geared him. Figured if the rumors became true I was at least a little ahead of the process. Not planning on leveling or gearing him unless they release a capital ship for him.

    Oh, yeah, those are definitely good characters that'll help you right away! Finish them for sure. Nute'll still be there when you get back!

    Man, someone is butt hurt.

    I'm one of the **** who farmed Nute at the very start of the game (my second 7* lol) and I don't regret it. He's fun to play with and with his ship probably coming, it doesn't hurt to farm him. Go for it.
    Plus, the Force tells me that they're going to release some sort of Separatists rework (like what they did with Sith characters) soon, so Nute will probably be better.

    Have a drink and chill. Not his fault you botched the quote, and made it confusing. I got it when I read it, but I definitely had to reread it several times wondering what you were talking about. "To Gunray, or Nute to Gunray" is much, much clearer/better. You should change it right now.

    And to your question (because I can contribute to a discussion, and be a tw@ too) I have the shards to 7* every toon from the arena shop but Nute, CUP, and Eeth Koth. I can't bring myself to waste tokens on any of them (which is saying something considering I farmed Ventress). I'm building up a stockpile of tokens, and then I'll start using the excess to buy credits. If Nute gets a ship/rework I'll have enough currency to 7* him fast. But I won't put anything into him until I know for sure he's getting the dev's attention.
